She attended a one room school house, Little Grove School, and Louisville North Clay High School. During high school, she lived at a boarding house in town with other girls, who could only go home to visit their families when the roads werent too muddy. She played basketball for one year in high school. They had a traveling team that would go to Flora for games. Their team was called the Silly Willys. She was one of 7 girls in a class of 23 her senior year and was elected President of her senior class.

Lucille enjoyed gardening, growing a variety of flowers in her perennial garden that still burst into bright colors each year, plus planting a long fence row of pine trees and various fruit/nut trees around the farm. She found time somehow to sew most all the clothes when her children were young, from school clothes to summer outfits to winter lined coats. Summers were spent planting, growing then freezing or canning many fruits and vegetables from her many gardens. For many years, they also raised chickens, sheep, geese, cows for milking and pigs.

Delton and Lucille were always a team working together on their Hoosier Township farm planting corn, soybeans & wheat plus starting a strawberry U-Pick patch & farm market w/ pumpkins, mums, and all kinds of seasonal fruit/vegetables. They later spent 12 winters in Sebring, Florida.

Lucille had the good fortune of good health and we would like to thank her part time caregivers over the last few years - Gloria Frohning, Melody Birch, LaDonna Goodman, Alissa Morris, and Miranda Stoneking.
